CHICAGO, November 12.-The one
mourner to be looked for above all Others
in the crowded death chamber at the home
OF August Spies was missing this afternoon
Among the throng OF weeping women and
stern looking men, there was no sign o
Nina, the proxy wife. Captain Black was
here, careworn but impassive. In reply
to question by an Associated Press re.
porter the Anarchists lawyer said earnestly

Indeed no." was the reply. I wish in
my heart she was. So far as I can learn,
Nina has not uttered one cry or shed a
single tear. fear she cannot do So"
Captain Black said he would make al
address at the funeral to morrow. What
ever spea king is to be done will be done at
the graves. The disposition is to select
only conservative men as speakers, those
who would confine their words to praise
and the beauty of those mems lives and an
explanation OF their principles. No one
will be selected to drive people frantic.
ENGEL AND LINGG.
The bodies of Engel and Lingg were in
their coffins and no one was permitted to
take more than one look as he passed
along. That portion Of Lingg's face which

had been filled up with chemicals and plae-
ter OF Paris. A bandage hid the wound
from the gaze, otherwise the face was we'll
In the frown on the brow there
was a trace of the awful determination
which nerved the bomb-maker to place the
candle to his mouth. The dull gleam Of
that elaring eye was still preserved between
the half-parted eyelids. Engel's face was as
calm and Indifferent as when he stood on
the scaffold yesterday. Hardly one out OF
the twenty who went into Engel's store to
view the remains spoke their minds in
English.
FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS.
It was definitely decided this afternoon
that the remains of August Spies should
not be laid in state in Aurora Turner Hall
Tomorrow. State Representative Frank
Staber, who is at the head OF the commit
tee of arrangements, says the refusal to al
low the remains in the hall was due to O.
fear of the owners that the police would re-
woke their license to sell liquors in case it
should be done. This the owners deny.
The question OF primary disposal OF the
dead Anarchists were settled this alter
noon. They will be taken to Waldehcim
Cemetery and placed in vault for the time
being. A committee represented to the di
rectors of The cemetery that the vault in
Waldeheim. being lately constructed and
on improved principles. was the strongest
near Chicago. Mr.. Stauber told the direc-
tors it was feared by the families OF the
Anarchists that determined effort would
